I had one of these!! Wow... I'd totally forgotten about it. I believe that was a pull out drinks tray on the front. I remember carrying it around by those neck handles cos it kept getting stuck in corners 🤣

I like how cleverly designed this portable tv is. The conical shape necessitated by the CRT has been made to feel like a feature and not a bug.
